At this stage I’m still raising funds for issue #19, so if I’m unable to get enough by February, I might need to delay the issue a bit. We’ll see. If you’d like to make a contribution, please check out my collection – Hoganthology. Proceeds from the page turns (Kindle Unlimited) and sales will go towards getting Alien Dimensions #19 off the ground.
Here’s the blurb for Hoganthology:
Hoganthology
In this 800 page (5″ x 8″) collection of Neil A. Hogan’s stories you will discover ancient space battles, alternate dimensions, sentient dark matter, dinosaurs, robots, galaxy movers, planet-sized aliens and more. Expect many twists and turns along the way. These stories throw you into many universes of an SF craftsman – mad, mind-bending, marvelous and always alien.
